Poor North Carolina, liko all the
Southern States, has paid very dearly
for her loyal whistle. An election
was held in that Stuto a few weeks
ago on tho question of calling a Stale
Convention. In order that American
freemen may havo some Idea how dec
tions aro conducted in North Carol!
na, wo copy tho following particulars
from the Wilmington (X. V.) Journal,
upon the conduct of the election in
that city. It snys :
"No one refrirtcrod woe aworn, unleaaa demanded
hy a Conie.rvaUve ohalleniror on elcoliun day. At
the polls in tho Third ward, there waa no paper or
book for recording the name of rntera until Mar
tin, ena of the poll-botdera, furnished a memoran
dum book from hia own p-icket. Clinllcnginir, waa
allowed, but tint no Ko, na in nearly ovary in
stance they wcro allowed to roto. Onoor two no
ftrocs who had been living in the ward hut nine
or ten days, were challenged, but allowed to vote,
a nuniner or whom proved to be under ago.
Tho North Carolina papers appear
to bo unanimous in counseling their
readers to bear with )alienco tho
burdens under which they nr Btrug
gling. Tho Chtirlotle Observer sug
gests thut, as tho Stato is nearly
bankrupt already, not much addition
al paper based on its credit can be
expected lo bo nogotiutcd.
It must indeed bo consoling to free
men to know that their officers of State
have so bankrupted tho Treasury and
rendered their credit so worthless thut
it is impossible for them lo nogolinle
twiy more nuner. Such aro the fruits
and glories of Radical reconstruction
Who is foolish enough to want more

Tub Internal Kevenub. It is a
notorious fact that tho Internal Revo
11 110 system of tho General Govern
ment is nothing more nor less than a
completo system of national domoral
ixulion. More thioves, hluck-mnilers
und robbers havo been bred by tho
system than all elso combined. High
and burlhensomo as tliuso taxes arc,
somo of thoso high in the affections ot
"1U0 Government" stato Ihoro is twice
tho money paid to detectives nnd
black mailers as hush money Hint
thcro is paid into tho Treasury; par
ticularly on whisky, tobacco und boor
accounts, three fourths of which comes
out of tho pockets of men who are
disposed lo bo honest, but aro Inveigled
into violating tho law by delceivcs nnd
revenue officers to keep up a fat busi
ness. Tito following, which wo clip
from u New York paper, is a sample
of how small things aro set up by tho
sharpers in question :
The decision of ex-C tiiimiasioner Plenainton,
oooipellins; wholesale dniRgiata to affix an internal
revenue atamp to cacti bottle or foreign pciftimcry.
hns enabled alaout a dnxi-n of aharocr. ai nii-nm

It has been whisporcd in financial
circles, for moro than n year past,
thut Boma enterprising individual had
choatcd our good old Commonwealth
out of between llireo and four hundred

count nt Hurrisburg was "short"
about thut sum, and when application
was made ut Washington for the
money tho "govornment" ulways sat
isfied our Stato agent that the claim
wus puid. Hut, who has tho money f
was tho perplexing question. .

'Government' Fakminu.-TIiu Craw
ford Democrat thus assails our Into
distinguished fellow citizen, District
Attorney Swoopo, with unduly stretch
ing his authority to muko money out
of his office, in proof of which it cites
tho lute Turner cuso.. "Turner," it
says, "had attempted in a particular
caso, to obtain money from tho gov
eminent by fraudulent means. Thut
he was guilty nnd deserve.1 punish
mont is unquestionable. But, in the
main, ho was only guilty of one of
fen no, and could havo been successfully
prosecuted on ono indictment, with
counts specifying tho various steps in
I Ii 0 general ollcnso. ' This honest
mode of procedure, however, did not
gratily the rapacity 01 bwoopo. Ouo
indictment would allow but one feo of
lo tho District Attorney; and
therefore ho n.incos up the genornl
charge into fivo or six pnru, gets up
as many indietmonts as thoro are
parts, and on oath and every ono re
ceives his $20. Swoopo appreciates
the dtllcrcnce between 9M and frill.
Tho law supposes him to bo nn honest
man, nnd wo grant that ho is honest
enough to subservo tho purposes of
1 ho present national administration
from which may tho good Lord foou
deliver tho people."
Onr cotcinpornry is exactly right,
but Mr Swoopo's praclico is that of
every lnslnct Attorney, tho lawyers
muko tho law, and they seem to know
us much "about farming" as Philoso
pher Greeley. Wo doubt not, if the
Democrat mun will oxamino the Mond
villo records, ho will find similar farm
in;'.
A Loyal Defender. Tho N. Y
Standard, a Custom liouso organ, on
Friday had a two and u half column
nrliclo endeavoring to justify Grunt
for appointing all his relations to fut
ollices, on the irrounu that tho kin jib
nnd (Queens of Europo do tho snmo
thing for theirs. Wo wore nnder the
impression that tho English system of
providing for tho royal family and no
bility censed in this country about tho
timo of the Declaration of lndepend
enco, and it soemed rather slrungo
thut a 'Republican' President was tho
first to rovivo it until reminded that
this mis named Republican party, of
which he is tho head, is tho offspring
of tho Royal or Tory party of 70
that its halo of Republican manners
and customs is as intenso as it wits
then, und that it is but biding its time
to build up a despotism worso thnn
tho ono overthrown when Cornwullis
surrendered al Yorkiown. Tho do
funco of tho Standard is a lumo ono,
and valueless from thofuct lliutil isiis
business it is printed for Grunt, not
for tho people. Were ho to detluro
himself Emperor to-morrow it would
cull upon tho laillilul to throw up

eminontly tho choico of tho mnssos, and

cently, fully seven thousand people
welcomed him to tho rostrum. At
Sun Francisco all difficulties hnvo been

a Democratic majority of at loast two
thousand. In Solano, whero tho op

there is every prospect thnt tho Dem

An Ei.ehant Extrao?. As eompli
menlftry opinions of Gen. Grant are
now in order, nnd lest thcro ho any
misluko in regard to Goncrnl John A.
Logan's chaste idensof his availability,
wo transcribe them Iron tho Chicago

"Our soldier Senator was nskod n
fow day ago, in his room at tho Tie

run. 'Run!' said ho, 'he'd run liko

John A. Logan is evidently n worthy

II. Grant thut thoro is no truth in tho
report that ho intends to resign tho
ollico of Postmaster of Covington.
Neilhor, wo regret to say, Is there
any probability Hint ho will over bo
dismif-scd from that office by tho Pros
idont, although he Is quite Incapablo
of discharging its duties. None of
the smaller shams or Grant's Adminis

for which he was ottorly and notori

land of empty litloa, have become as

they havo become so numerous, that
tho tit lo has degenerated into a nnmo
full ol sound nnd fury, signifying nolh

We know that tho redoubtable Col

ment of Mr. Douglass as acting Com
missioner of Internal Revenue evi
dently puts llio Lowry clement of the
Republican parly again on lop in the
matter ol reileral appointments. A
few months ago, when .Mr. Rogers
was removed from tbo collectorsliip,
for his devotion lo Mr. Lowry, it was
supposed hy 31 r. bconrld that ho had
given tho dentil blow to that clement
of tho party, but ho liltlo thought
that in a short period another of Mr
Lowry's right bowers, in tho person
of Mr. Douglass, would attain a posi

collectors at will. Mr. Scofiold, to
gratify his rovenge, procured tho de
capitation of ono poor district collect
or, but Mr. Lowry, in return, gains
control of tho cnliro Internal Rovenuo
department. It will not eurpriso us,
beforo long, to see tho Scofiold heads
rolling into tho executioner's basket
by tho dor.en, nnd Lowry heads Ink

of gratified vengennco. Tho selection
of Mr. Douglass is tho precursor of
another uespcrato and probably suc

and the serious injury of another.
The circumstances attending this sad
affair, as related lo us hy the surviv
ing victim, nro substantially- as follows:
Thomas Richards, whodtd tho shoot
intf, bus beon livinir in Wilcox for
some time, being in tho omploy of the
tunning company. In September lust
ho hud .11 violent attack of fever, which
uflcclcd Ins mind to such nn cxtont
thnt at times ho bocumo quile insane.
Tbeso periodical attucks ronderod him
an object to be fonrcd, as ho becamo
violently, inluriatcd. At such times
his wifo and daughter were tho onos
upon whom he emptied bis vials of
wrath. About two weeks ago, wlulo
laboring under ono of tlioso attacks,
ho drove them from llio liouso, and
sold tho furniture und household ef
fects. After ho recovored from its ef
fects, ho applied ut tho tannery for
work and tried to porsuudo bis wifo
lo live with him. In both of these
endeavors ho was unsuccessful.. Not
only did Iho tunning company refuse
to employ him, but compelled him to
leave tho town, in llio mounutne
Mrs. Richards and duughtor rooccu
pied llio houso, A few days ugo sho
received a letter from her husbund
dated AllcL'hony City, in which bo
said it pained his heart to think of
their seperution, und desired to know
whether somo concessions could not
bo mndo which would result in their
Benin living togctlior.' To Ibis she
made no reply. On Thursday morn
ing Richards nrrived at Wilcox on tho
express ensl, and proceeded at onco
to tho house. Do wont to ono of tho
back windows, which was fustcnod
down with a stick, lireuking out a
pain of glass be roached in, removod
the stick, hoisted the window, nnd
cot in. The noise awoko Mrs. ICich-
urds und uaugiilor, wno sprang out 01
bed to ascertain tbo causo. 15y this
timo Richards had entered the cham
ber of tho frightened mother and
datiirhler. Without nnV preliminary
remarks ho told Mrs. Richards thut ho
cumo back to got her to live with him
again. She told him it wns no use, as
sho did not feel thut it wus safe to do
so. He insistod lhat sho must. Sho
told him to wait until sho had drossod
herself, when sho would talk with
him, to which ho maJo no reply. lie
thon said, "Ain't you going to Bcnk
lo mef ut the snmo timo drawing a
revolver, with tho further remark,
"Here's something Ibnt will make you
speak." Sho declined to answor and

of her nose, and lodging in tho back
purl of her head. lie then shot him
soil through the heart, producing in
stnnt death.
Mrs. Richardjislying in avcrycritl
oal condition, fears being entertained
thut Bho will not recover. 1 ho per
petrator of this frightful tragedy was
an Englishman by birth. Ho wus a
first cluss workman and a man of
temperate habits, but his temper wns
violent and unrovcrnublo. 1U wus
ubout fortv yeurs of ago. Tho cause
which led lo Iho committal of this
bloody act is supposed to havo boon
temporary insanity, suporiudiiccd by
juulousy. 1.1k Democrat.
Mail itoniiEiiY and Foroery. A
few dnys ago a Government detective
mado bis appouranco in this city, and
in a quiel unostentatious manner bo
gunto"worknpaca.so." On Wednes
day lust bis labors culminated in the
nrreslof N. K. Kemp, post-muster at
Mountain lop, and agent ot the de
high Valley Railroad at Fairview,
upon a chargo of mail robbery and
forgery. It is alleged that Kemp in.
terceptcd the pension papers of Mary
Shafer, of Wright township, from the
mails, forged tho voucher, and secured
tho pension check for the amount,
$170.20, which was cashed at Dennett,

bus not preached so regularly, and
during llio past fifteen years has not
kept a record of burials, murriagos,
Ac, but from tlio record up to the
limo of its discontinuance we glean
Iho following interesting facts: He
baptized 25,004 persons; buried 7,21 8;
confirmed 0,412, married 4,148, and
administered the Holy Communion lo
01,082. .Reflect 1 What nn army this

A "New Departure." In tho an
nnls of medical science a few ensos
nnd only a low nro recorded whero
women who have passed tbo ngo of
inreo score yeurs Imve givon birth to
children. Theso occurrences nro con
sidered extraordinary, and nlways
awaken a lively interest among scion-
I illo mon. In one of our exchanges
wo flud tho statement thnt n lady
numed Mrs. llctsy Hudson, living
ubout six miles north of Wnrrcn, Pa ,
on the Jnmostown and Warren road,
aged sixty-fire years, presented her
husband a fow duysago with a healthy,
bouncing baby. This is ono of tho
most romarkublc instances on record,
and should roceive tbo attention of
llio modical fratornity.

says "tho way to lose the Presi

While the Evening Tclcamph tells its

The Vcnnsvtvania War Claims.
There Is evldontly something wrong
about tho settlement of the Pennsyl
vania ,wnr claims. - Somebody bus
been making a fine thing out of thom,
and it looks vory much liko Dr. Geo.
0. Eviids, of Philadelphia, was the
guilty party. Under a resolution of
ili LogibTuturo, approved Murch 22,
1807,' provision was mado thnt tho
State ugont should Attend to tho set
tlement ot tbeso claims, and Evans
wns appointed by the Govornor. The
claims collected tip to tho present timo
amount to $2,808,201.71. Of tbissum
thrco warrants amounting to S321,
014.41 hnvo never boon puid into the
Slato treasury. Evans claims Hint
ho is entitled to ten per cent, of tho
wliolo amount, which makes tho nice
liltlo salary of (32,820.10, ond he has
kept this sum as his own without
ever forwarding it lo tlio Sluto author
ities. Even allowing this to him he is
yet indebted to the State for about
(5290,000. It is evident from the facts
nlrendy published thut thoro hue been
a big swindling game going on by
somo ono connected with the agency,
and whether Dr. Evans is nlono to

The Peach Tiiadb. Tho Cocil (Md.1
Democrat says : The peuch crop this
yeur is Bullering Irom plethora, the
crop is prodigious, but the prices nro
distressing. Ihis is llio first season
within our recollection when good
fruit failed to command a good prico.
Iho fruit now going lo market is sii
porh, but tho price nt which it sells
hardly pays expenses, vt e have heard
of ono shipment of eighty baskets of
nrst class poaches thnt cleared tho
shipper ono dollar in Iho aggregate,
and ol another ot eevon hundrod bas
kets tho not returns for which wore
less than two dollars. Thoso low
prices are a source of groat distress
to farmers, who expected their peuch
crop lo set them afloat again, and up
prehensions aro now generul of nnoth
cr yeur of continued hard times.
Tho Philadelphia Age says tho Dem
ocratio majority will not bo less than

if thnt is not granted, there will bo an
